The Tonight Show has really morphed into late night "must see" television under the guidance of Jimmy Fallon, hasn't it? Chances are that if you aren't tuning in each night then you either DVR the episode or catch the viral YouTube clips the next day. Any way that you slice it, Fallon usually offers up something worth revisiting and Tuesday night's episode did just that thanks to a skit with guest Julianna Margulies.
The two were cast with Fallon as a high school to Margulies' vice-principal and they delivered the daily award winning announcements. What unfolds is hilarity to music by the likes of "Bey-Once" and Iggy Azalea. Fans already know that Jimmy Fallon is often kind of brilliant in character but Julianna Margulies might have even topped him this time out in "Turned Down for Tut," an obvious parody of "Turn Down for What" by Lil Jon and DJ Snake.
In this four minute clip, both Fallon and Magulies encompassed everything that embarrasses the life out of teenagers- mangled lyrics, bad dance moves and the notion that they are as cool and hip as the kids are. Put it all together and you have perhaps the best four minutes on television yesterday.
Are you a fan of the Tonight Show now that Fallon is hosting? Do you think that he has breathed the kind of life into it that NBC was counting on? Do you tune in at night to help those ratings numbers or are you someone that just catches the highlights online after the fact? Over the last 8 months who have some of your favorite guests been and how do you think that Julianna Margulies did when it was her turn to sit in that arm chair last night?
